#1 | | Tilting for 5 years!! | Dan Takes Down Game 11!!
After a couple of weeks off, Dan returns tonight to take down the game!! 
Dan and Steve throw the blinds back and forth for a blind level, neither one wanting to make the move. Both were about even stacked at one point, and neither wanted to give up their stacks to the other. Finally, Steve loses a nice pot when his kicker was outkicked. After that, it was only a waiting game for Dan, who finally got Steve to go all in when he was holding an Ace. Steve got no help, and Dan took the game!
I took third place, but only after Steve crippled me when he hit a miracle flush on the river to beat my two pair on flop. It was the hand that knocked Romer out of the game, and Steve's trash talking got Romer to call my all in bet, only to lose the side pot to me. Nicely done Steve.
Tonight's Chump was Max, on a go broke hand. His Kings over Jacks boat held no water against my quad jacks. No one was walking away from that hand when we both hit trips on the flop!! When the jack came on the river, it was one of the most beautiful sights I ever did see  Well, at least until I hit my straight flush three handed that is. Too bad it only doubled me up to allow me to play another orbit.
Only one game left in Season 5! I'll update the points board over the weekend. It's going to be close!!

congrats Dan!!!...well played!
btw, It wasn't the trash talk from Steve, it was the pot odds and the fact I had 350 chips left. AJ...when you went all-in, it was so obvious you had us both making it clear Steve was on a draw or had a lower pair. BUT with 5600 in the pot...I was getting 16-1 on my money and with the blinds at 100-200...I would need a miracle to fight my way back with 350 chips if I folded. Anyhow, it was a great game everyone. See you all next week!
P.S. the thought of that composter was affecting my game...LOL!

STOP IT!!
Good game Romer. In your position, you really had no choice in the move. Too bad the rest of your chips didn't make up my loss when Steve hit that flush  Still, your bubble placement MAY be enough for you to become the new leader. But you'll have to wait to see

| Limped in with A4o, but had position. Flop comes down A46 with 2 spades. Steve pushes all in, and Romer hymns and haws for about a min and calls. Figured Steve was on a flush or straight draw and Romer had A9 or A10. I push for Romer's last few chips, he calls me. Steve turns over 78s so he's got both a flush and a gut shot straight draw, Romer turns over A8o. Turn was crap, but another spade hit the river to give Steve the flush.

But since they claim that Dan won....
Congrats you sneak! I resolve that you will not get my chips next week!

#14 | | Tilting for 5 years!! | TOP 16 LIST HAS BEEN UPDATED!!!
Chris still holds a lead, but it's dwindling. I have regained second spot once again, but only by a single point over Romer.
Anyone in the top five can take this down, depending on turnout numbers.

Thats does it! How does AJ drink beer (3 cold ones) and still beat me by a point? What's the secret? Dan, you better bring donuts for Amanda...she kept whining about them. AJ/EL thanks for the headsup regarding the STUPIDITY people start!
The war is on next game people!!!!
My hitlist:
Steve Kerr and AJ and of course BIGCHRISEL!
